  3. People who have experienced some form of sexual violence or abuse in their lives.
  4. People who consent to being contacted by us to discuss their support options in relation to their experience of sexual violence/abuse specifically
If you are unsure if your referral is suitable or have any further questions please contact us on 01273 203380 before completing this referral form.

Before you refer

  • If you are making a referral for someone who has been assaulted within the last 7 days and it is outside of office hours and/or a forensic and health consultation may be of benefit, please contact the Saturn Centre on 0800 033 7797.
  • If the person you are referring has recently experienced or is currently experiencing domestic violence please confirm that you have also referred into domestic violence services and completed all necessary safeguarding referrals (including MARAC referrals if appropriate). We need this to be completed before we process the referral.
  • If the person you are referring has any other safeguarding needs, please ensure that appropriate action is taken prior to referral.

Information submitted on this referral form will be treated as confidential and stored securely on the Survivors’ Network data management system. Information is only shared with third parties with the explicit consent of the person being referred or if there is a risk of significant harm or safeguarding concerns.
